Tigress Osborn, Executive Director of the National Association to Advance Fat Acceptance returns to the show to discuss Mike Tyson's Super Bowl ad for MAHA and the inverted food triangle. The fat shaming ad is part of an ongoing appeal to the manly man, providing us with boxer Mike Tyson telling us about how he wanted to kill himself when he was fat, and telling us all that "something needs to be done about processed food in this country." It's an ad for realfood.gov and was directed by Brett Ratner who directed the Amazon financed film Melania. Tony Lyons created the ad and financed it through the nonprofit MAHA Center.
Tyson has since been at press conferences with RFK Jr and Brook Rollins, the head of the USDA.
There are official government AI generated images of MAHA leaders with Tyson's face tattoo.
Tyson joined Calley Means and RFK Jr for a Fox News interview.
